Inexpensive long range

I want to hone my long range skills. I thought I would use my mauser 30-06 but it doesnt look like the barrel is up to the job. What can I get into for $500ish or on the used market that would fit the bill. A lighter caliber would also be fine.
22-250, 223, etc...
Recomendations:
Ruger american
Browning A bolt
Remington 700
Weatherby
Or am I going in the wrong direction. I would like to be able to sit and shoot 20 or so rnds between breaks without barrel heat drift (remngton 7600 is horrible about that).
Long range to me is 300-500yds
